Guest Room & Green Thumbs

This is the bed portion of the Miller Bed & Breakfast. If you come for a visit and need overnight lodging, this is where you will "hang your hat". This is an invitation, by the way.

I'm quite pleased with the Country Love quilt. It was my first experience making the binding for a quilt and sewing it on; I think it turned out pretty well for being a scalloped edge. I'm glad to know how to do that because the older generation won't be around forever to do it for us. Maybe someday I will even learn to like quilting. LOL

I do not have a green thumb so when some poor, hapless plant thrives I tend to be surprised. I had this amaryllis bulb that was totally neglected all winter -no water or warmth, little light. When I went to move my houseplants upstairs recently I was shocked to find it growing a healthy, hefty leaf. It has now burst into bloom -4 giant flowers. I have been told the treatment I gave it was not neglect but precisely what it needed. Once before when I tried to over-winter an amaryllis it died. The other pitiful amaryllis I was intending to pitch is now growing as well. Will wonders never cease?!

I also have an over abundance of spider plants if anyone would like to have one. I got the mother of all spider plants from my grandma, so I have kept that one thriving for over 15 years.
